st. Louis Globe-Democrat T

st. Louis Globe-Democrat Thomas
Goodman, the reverend gentleman who
preached the funeral sermon over the
remains OF Thomas Lincoln, the father
of the lamented President Lincoln, was
married recently in Charleston. H., to
Mrs. Jane Hall of Hutton township,
Coles county. The circumstances of
marriage are as follows:
Mrs. Hall was widowlady. who had
made up her mind to remoyet to Indiana,
and had packed her household goods
Wednesday, in order to have them re-
moved to Charleston, whence she ex-
pected to start to-day. She had en-
ployed neighbor named II. L. Bran
denberg to convey her thither Mr..
Goodman, who had been on the lookout
for a ..spare rib for some time past,
heard of her, and arrived at Brandon
berg just as he WASH the act of start
ing with his fair load, asked permission
to ride, and. the widow raising no OBJ
jections, he climbed in beside her.
All went very well for time. but
afterWard Brandenberg noticed that the
quilt in the sled that had until within a
few moments been only sufficient for
the widow was doing service for both
and he could hear muffled whispers,
As a ruse TO get nearer, he complained
of cold and walked beside the sled
where he could hear. and where he
shortly was aware OF a proposal and an
acceptance. and then prolonged kiss
After "a while they made known 10 him
the result, telling him to leave the goods
at Goodman's house in the city Ar
irving in Charleston, the bride was left
at the grocery of Mr.. t. J. Hutton,
while the groom repaired to the Clerk s
office for marriage license, after which
the services of Squire Alvin Wiley of
Hutton were called in requisition, and
the couple made one. Mrs. Goodman
is5l years of age, while Mr.. Goodman is
79. Rumor says he was to have been
married last Thursday to a Mrs. Hand
weurk, a German lady Of this vicinity,
but that she bounced him. The Rev
Mr.. Goodman had never seen his bride
until then, which makes the courtship
proposal, and marriage probably the
quickest on record.

A Surgeons Suicide.

A remarkable suicide has recently
been committed in ST. Petersburg. A
short time ago woman, aged %, came
to consult DR.. Bodtkine, who found
that she was suffering from a tuber-
culous ulcer
An operation being deemed neces-
sary, DIR. Botkine sent her to M.
kolominne, surgeon of considerable
repute. He admins tered to her a
slight dose Of saline acid of cocaine.
and finding this did not take effect he
increased the dose and performed the
operation with complete success, but a
few hours afterWard he received a mes
sage to say that his patient seemed t,
be dying. and he found upon hurrying
to her, that, judging by the feebleness
OF the pulse and blush appearance of
the face, she was suffering from the
effects Of poison. All the efforts made
to save her were of no effect and she
died the same evening.
NJ. kolominne was so overcome that
he denounced himself as her murderer.
though all his colleagues assured him
that he was in no way to blame. But
he would not listen to them, and a few
days afterward he blew his brains out.

must have been the victim of some
temporary alteration, and this has

De vii EXtractig.

The Times, Of, India, says that the
Madras Small Cause Court has brought
to light gentleman who gains his liv-
ing by devil extracting. This highly
lucrative employment appears to be
recognized as a perfectly legitimate
profession. There was no disguise in
court as tothe exact nature of the claim.
In fact, the Judge, a native gentleman,
appeared to resent the skepticism of the
defendants pleader as to the possibility
OF casting out devils, and his popularity
at the expense of the plaintiff profess
sion. ''What. if a doctor does ot cure,
he cannot recovern' his Honor exclaim-
ed on one occasion; and on another,
when the defendants pleader expressed
his disbelief in devil extracting, he in
consequently observed, "but YOU be-
lieve in haunted houses?" To this re-
mark the pleader replied, .sthere may
be a spiritual manifestation, from
which it would appear that he is not
altogether free from the superstition
which he ridiculed
The plaintiffs cross-examination was
very dlvertlng. Diseases, he said,
We're of three fundamental, spiritual.
and physical. Some physical sicknesses
he could cure by his art, but not every
case. Asked if he could cure love pains,
he replied. ..That is a very hard pain
to be cured; even my father could not
cure that. He could notcure person
unless he were negative.
Other witnesses called described the
nature of the plaintiffs treatment and
it's success. 1t was inferred that the
evil spirit of the patient in this case
was of the female kind. At the con-
clusion of the evidence the worthy
Judge dismissed the suit, not because he
was OF opionion that there was no cause
OF action, but because there was no
evidence to support the contract sued
upon,

WASH SGToN Critic: OF all the pleas
ant things said of Mrs Cleveland this
winter the truest is that no one has vet
heard from her the slightest suggestion
OF gossip. 1nnumerable and as irresist-
ible as are the opportunities here to a
quick-witted woman to comment on
people and things, she has never made
the simplest remark which might be
construed as unkind. Perhaps no lady
in her position was ever keener read
er of what others say Of her in print
than Mrs. Cleveland, and naturally
much OF her knowledge of the social
doings of others comes to her only
through that medium. She expresses
herself as being thoroughly appreciative
OF the kin | things said to and of her,
particularly of the success, winch has
followed her career this winter as the
hostess Of the White House, and in that
capacity has charmed the most critical
of Washington's cultured resident and
foreign circles.

Washington Special: The decision
of the supreme court, as interpreted by
Chief Justice Waite, that there is no United
States law to protect maltreated Chinese,
creates surprise and comment almost akin
to that manifested when the infamous bred
Scott decision was promulgated. II moth
ing but state laws on the Pacific coast can
protect the Chinese under present prejudice
then God pity them, = said a prominent
Oregonian ssFor they will be at the COM
plete mercy of wicked and vicious men.
Persecution, rokberies, cabin burning and
murder will, I fear, ravage California,
Oregon and Wyoming, virtually unchecked
just as soon as it is understood that the
highest judicial authority has decided that
the Chinese have no rights which the
United States government is bound to re-
spect.n High parties here are unreserved
in their censures of the chief Justice, some
even intimating that he must be demented,
or he would have Withheld such an opinion
at this time, however strong his convictions
and advised congress at its next session to
remedy the evil by proper enactments 4
